Witch Monastery

Hawthorne hurriedly stepped back, frowning, and then he saw a huge figure gradually emerging from the black fog in front of him!

It was a giant about 7 to 8 meters tall, his upper body seemed to be that of a human, but his head was a goat skull covered with rotten flesh. He had a huge, fat, rotten belly, and his lower body was two goat-like reverse-jointed legs covered with pitch-black hair, looking weird and terrifying.

There was a pair of tattered and deformed bat wings behind him, which made people doubt whether he could really fly with them. But now they were in the sea, and fighting in such a place, it seemed that there was no need to worry about whether he could fly.

Looking at the huge creature in front of him, Hawthorne couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Ocas!

One of the most powerful demon lords in the Abyss, a super-strong man with power comparable to that of the reigning true God!

Damn, how could this happen? It would be fine if the Death Knight ran away on his own, but how come he could summon something a thousand times more troublesome than himself at this moment!

Hawthorne cursed inwardly, but when he noticed the red light coming from Ocus's rotting skull, his heart suddenly trembled.

Just now, the last words of the Death Knight were to let Orcus kill me...

Damn, how could this happen!

He cursed inwardly, but did not hesitate to move. He turned upwards, and the fins on his back trembled violently.

His body suddenly accelerated and turned into a blue streamline, rushing straight into the sky.

Taking advantage of this moment, he just moistened it!

Chapter 714: The Arrival of Orcus (Final Chapter of this Volume)

Hawthorne swam rapidly upwards, while below him, Orcus, who had just arrived in the material world, was about to enjoy everything in this world and transform all the living people around him into his undead servants.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a powerful force restraining him, forcing him, and making him go upward to chase Hawthorne's figure and transform him into an undead creature first.

That was the Death Knight's final will, and also the only condition he attached when he summoned Orcus to the material world: in order to summon this Lord of the Abyss, the Death Knight almost burned out his own soul, and the only trace of his remaining soul controlled the only connection between Orcus and the material world!

If Ocas fails to kill Hawthorne in time, this remnant soul will cut off this

Contact and send Orcus directly back to the abyss; only when he completes the transaction, the residual soul will dissipate smoothly, allowing it to stay in this world safely for a long time!

Ocus's laughter suddenly stopped. He knew that this was a contract he had signed personally. If he did not fulfill it, then the Death Knight could theoretically send him back to the Abyss, making all his ambitions come to nothing.

However, the word "keeping a promise" has never appeared in the demon lord's dictionary, nor has there ever been any moral integrity. Back then, the Abyss Lord Graz'zt could even break his promise to a true goddess, let alone this little Death Knight!

Feeling the pressure from the contract, Ocas' voice was filled with resentment: "Who do you think you are? How dare you order me to act!"

As he said this, he withdrew his hand and silently chanted a spell. Then, a magic wand that was nearly four or five meters long and had a huge skull hanging on it appeared in his hand!

The Staff of Orcus!

The artifact that made Abyss Lord Orcus famous is one of the most powerful artifacts in the multiverse. It is because of its power that Orcus can stand on equal footing with the two-headed baboon, the legendary demon prince Demo Gogan, and has a fighting power that is not inferior to the true gods who still hold power!

As for Orcus, who possesses it, he can be said to be the master of all undead creatures and their absolute controller, unless the gods of death personally intervene!

Orcus chanted a spell, and the mouth of the skull on top of the huge magic wand began to open and close. A dark magical fog gushed out of its mouth, surrounding the huge body of the Abyss Lord, searching for the remaining soul of the Death Knight.

Soon, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Ocus' mouth. The black mist gradually deformed, outlining the image of Hawthorne, holding the double-headed sword, looking lifelike, like a real living person.

Ocus stretched out his big hand, pinched the head of "Hawthorne", and exerted force suddenly -

click -

The fake Hawthorne's head was crushed to pieces in an instant, and the remaining soul of the Death Knight also completely dissipated, leaving no trace.

Feeling the restraining force on his body gradually fade away, until there was no trace left, Ocas opened his mouth again and let out a series of extremely wild laughs in the dark seabed.

The temper of the demon lords has always been like this, capricious, with changeable moods, and the most prominent thing is that if there is even the slightest benefit in breaking the contract, they will definitely not keep their promises and maintain their credit!

They are absolutely selfish, evil, despicable and crazy beings. Any transaction with them will only hurt yourself in the end!

Once upon a time, there was a precedent of that naive goddess who wanted to use Grazite's territory to return to her own kingdom of God, but was reneged on, ambushed, captured, and humiliated by the other party.

And today, this Death Knight has made the same mistake again!

At the same time, Hawthorne was still swimming hard towards the surface of the sea. Two minutes had already passed, but for some reason, Tasha's extraordinary form had not yet ended.

But in any case, he was able to swim faster than a swordfish, all the way back to the ice on the sea surface, and easily left Orcus behind.

And the moment he finally emerged from the water through the hole he had made, the fins on his back suddenly disappeared, as if this spell had finally reached its limit and could no longer provide him with powerful assistance.

But at this moment, Hawthorne, who had returned to the surface of the sea, no longer needed the help of this spell. He let out a long breath, climbed back onto the ice with difficulty, and then raised his head to look at the battlefield ahead.

The undead creatures, which had seemed very brave and frenzied before and launched a fearless attack on the elves, now seemed quite stiff and dull, as if they had lost their brains, so now no matter what they did, they seemed a little slow.

A hoarse dragon roar came from a distance, attracting his attention. Huo Sang turned his head and saw that it was the dragon lich, which was now being pressed down by the huge silver dragon. It seemed to have sensed the death of its master, and the soul fire in its eye sockets flickered, and it even let out this painful whine.

Seeing this situation, Hawthorne breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, at least the ultimate goal of this battle, which was to destroy the Death Knight, was completed smoothly.

Although that guy finally summoned Orcus in a frenzy, this lord of the abyss had just arrived in the material world and obviously had not yet completely taken over the undead creatures under the Death Knight.

This time difference is their opportunity!

A chance to escape!

"Ekta! Ethan!"

Facing the front, he shouted loudly: "Break the ice, then get on the boat, let's escape!"

Over there, because the battle had not lasted too long, Ethan and Ekta still had plenty of energy. After hearing Hawthorne's request, the two immediately began to bombard the ice beneath their feet to create space for the moon ship to move.

Hawthorne turned around, the effect of his long strides still working on him. He easily passed through the cluster of undead creatures and ran to the side of the dragon lich. He stabbed his double-headed sword into its mind and silently chanted "purification".

This was what he had promised to do to the old lady Silver Dragon. Now he had to fulfill his promise first and then lead everyone to evacuate.

With the huge silver dragon pressing down on the dragon lich's body, the guy was almost unable to put up any effective resistance. The warm and purifying white light quickly filled the dragon lich's entire body, and with a whine, the guy gradually dissipated and finally turned into a pile of ash, leaving not a single bit of him in this world.

Watching his old friend gradually disappear, the silver dragon slowly closed his eyes. Even though the dragon's face was not as vivid as a human's, Hawthorne still saw some pain in it.

But fortunately, the silver dragon didn't suffer for too long. She opened her eyes again, roared, and then swung her thick tail, smashing it heavily on the ice beneath her.

The terrifying force caused the entire ice surface to crack and tremble. Even Hawthorne, who was standing so close, was unsteady and almost fell down.

However, the effect of this attack was also gratifying. At least several huge cracks with a length of more than ten meters appeared on the ice surface, and as the ice surface shook and fluctuated, they continued to spread far away!

Seeing this, Ekta and Ethan were even more delighted, and hurriedly concentrated their firepower, allowing the high-temperature flames to penetrate into the gaps created by the silver dragon, accelerating its dissolution.

The silver dragon swung its tail again, hitting the ice hard, causing it to break even faster. Huo Sang also ran back quickly, shouting at everyone to get on the boat quickly and not to fight any more.

Finally, after four consecutive heavy blows, a wide enough passage was finally opened on the ice. The moon elves drove the boat, carrying them away from here, all the way to the far distance.

Ancient God Awakens

Chapter 715 Good News and Bad News

In the deep sea.

Ocus laughed wildly, stirring the waves with his powerful magic wand. Countless schools of fish approaching were swept away by his frenzied necromancy, and their vitality was quickly drained away, turning them into lifeless zombie fish.

Then, under the influence of his magic, these zombie fish quickly merged together, forming a huge meat egg, and then pieced together into huge flesh and blood giants, and powerful undead creatures.

This was his ability and his usual trick. As a lord of the abyss who had existed for countless years, he had been sealed and escaped several times. He was already familiar with these spells, and he did not have to consider the mood of the goddess of magic at all. He could arbitrarily shape many materials into the undead creatures he wanted.

Soon, on this silent seabed, he assembled a terrifying army of undead creatures.

Then, Orcus laughed wildly, took steps on the deep seabed, and headed towards the direction of Gendra Port.

He knew that it was once the Death Knight's lair, where he had been operating for a long time. There were a large number of undead creatures, as well as various materials and facilities.

That was his dream home, and he would use it as a starting point to gradually conquer the entire country of Borneo. It was a perfect environment for him, and he turned that country into the paradise of his dreams!

At the same time, on the elves' moon ship.

After leaving the sea area at a high speed, everyone on the boat breathed a sigh of relief. Hawthorne used the Dry Water Technique to dry himself, but he was still shivering from the cold sea water. This was not only the effect of the low temperature sea water frozen by the breath of the Silver Dragon Lich, but also because he was hit by the negative energy fireball of the Death Knight, so he was still in a weak state.

Ekta created a small stable fireball around him, which barely dispelled some of the coldness. But even so, the December sea breeze still made people feel very cold.

On the side, the moon elves treated their own wounds and repaired the many damages on the ship. After ensuring that there was no risk of the ship suddenly disintegrating and sinking, they finally felt relieved and invited them to enter the cabin inside the boat to rest.

When they walked in, they found that the boat was actually using a space-folding magic. From the outside, it looked like it was less than 100 square meters, but when they went in, they found that it was a banquet hall with an area of ​​more than 400 square meters and was decorated magnificently.

The hall was covered with gorgeous wool carpets, so they could enter in socks without shoes. In the center of the hall was a huge snow-white rotating round table, and around the table were beautifully shaped wooden chairs.

On the ceiling directly above the round table, there is a diamond as big as a football. Twelve small diamonds are inlaid around the diamond, emitting magical light and illuminating the entire hall.

Not only that, there are corridors leading to deeper areas all around the banquet hall, and there is also a spiral staircase leading to higher floors, indicating that there is more space inside.

This is the leisure of the elves. Each member of them is born with the ability to use magic, and they have long been accustomed to using spells to transform every aspect of their lives. Such things are extremely difficult to do in the human world, which makes several people who first interact with the elves amazed.

Because there were many wounded on board, the moon elves did not entertain them much. Hawthorne and the others did not care, and just found a chair to sit down, and then took out the rations and water to recover.

After a while, Anastasia came up with Kasa, looking exhausted. She looked at him and nodded seriously, "Thank you, Earl Hawthorne, for helping me today. The Moon Elf Kingdom will remember this."

"future,

If Earl Hawthorne needs help, the Moon Elves will definitely help him with all their might."

The population of the elves was not large to begin with. If the two great human powers, Sayin and Bora, had a population of more than 100 million at their peak, then the population of the Elf Empire would not exceed 100,000 even at its peak.

And now that they have split, the population of the Moon Elves is estimated to be just over 10,000.

In this case, if today's crisis really kills dozens of elves in one go, it can be regarded as an earth-shattering event for the entire kingdom.

Hawthorne saved them, so he could be regarded as a great favor to the whole country. Although Anastasia was only the captain of a magic ship leading dozens of elves, her words were very important.

Hawthorne also knew the weight of her promise. He smiled, nodded slightly to her, and said modestly: "In front of the undead creatures, we are the most steadfast allies. These things are nothing."

As he said this, he turned his head and looked at Kasa who was following behind her. The girl was also a little disheveled now, with messy hair, but at least the wounds and bloodstains had been cleaned up, but her face looked a little weak and haggard, and a little pitiful.

He looked at the girl lovingly. The latter noticed his gaze, pursed her lips, her face suddenly turned red, and she lowered her head. She frequently glanced at him out of the corner of her eyes, but did not dare to look him in the eye.

Hawthorne couldn't help but smile, and Anastasia, who was sandwiched between the two of them, also noticed the eye contact between them and a smile appeared on her lips.

But she saw through it but didn't say anything. She moved her feet slightly to block Annuo's sight, and then asked, "However, there is one more thing, Father Hawthorne, I need to confirm it?"

"What exactly is going on under the sea? Why are you urging us to leave so suddenly?"

According to common sense, since the Death Knight has been killed by Hawthorne, the next thing should be the collapse of the entire undead army.

Instead of retreating, they should have stayed there and taken this opportunity to kill as many undead creatures as possible.

However, Hawthorne urged them to leave in a hurry. Although they did not understand, they chose to leave out of trust in him and because there were too many wounded, and drove the moon boat to the deep sea.

And now that everyone is safe, Anastasia is waiting for a reasonable explanation.

In response, Hawthorne took a deep breath and said, "One good news and one bad news, which one should I hear first?"

Anastasia was stunned for a moment, then continued, "Listen to the good news first."

"The good news is that the Death Knight is indeed dead," Hawthorne said. "He should be completely dead, both physically and spiritually. There should be no need to worry about his threat anymore."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Even though there were many twists and turns in the process, at least the final result was still good. Their strategic goal had been achieved, and the rest depended on how the people from the Poro Kingdom eliminated the remaining undead creatures.

Behind Hawthorne, Fatima also breathed a sigh of relief. She had actually been very scared, after all, it was the Death Knight and the mages from her hometown who turned her into a mummy.

If he was given enough time, he might be able to control her as a mummy and make her lose her freedom like the dragon lich.

"So, what's the bad news?" On the other side of Hawthorne, Celine couldn't help but ask before the moon elves.

Then, the smile on Hawthorne's face disappeared and became extremely heavy.

"The bad news is that the Death Knight's backer is Orcus," Hawthorne said. "You should have heard of him? He is one of the most powerful lords of the abyss, the Lord of the Undead."

As soon as these words came out, the air on the Moon Ship suddenly stagnated. Everyone present had heard of the notoriety of this Abyss Lord, and at this moment, they were all worried.

"He has come to the material world. After I killed the Death Knight, he appeared at the bottom of the sea and wanted to make me his slave." Hawthorne said, "Fortunately, I reacted quickly and fled back to the surface of the sea before he caught up with me."

An Nuo couldn't help but hold his hand, her eyes full of worry. Huo Sang also held her little hand, looked at the solemn expressions of the crowd, let out a long breath, and then said: "Inform the Boro side of this news, we... have to prepare for a more difficult battle."

Orcus's power is comparable to that of a true god. In addition, he is not a complete madman. He is a monster that can only act on instinct and has no clear weaknesses.

On the contrary, he himself is even very cunning. If you compare it, his threat may be even greater than that of Shude Meier, and it is far from being comparable to disasters of the level of Monbot and the Fallen Prince!

Anastria opened her mouth and nodded. "Okay, I understand. I will inform Poro, the Moon Elf Kingdom, and all the righteous people in the world about this matter."

"This disaster is indeed much more difficult to deal with than we initially expected."

Chapter 716 Level

After exchanging information, the moon elves turned around and left, using their magic circle to pass on the message to various forces. After the remaining moon elves rested, they began to prepare to entertain their guests.

Then... they took out the elf food.

Looking at the square in front of me, it looks like a compressed biscuit

Hawthorne looked a little helpless as he looked at the yellow dry food.

There really is no delicious food to speak of among the elves. Although they also like to enjoy everything in life, because the population is too small, no one devotes themselves to studying food.

Although these elven dry food were made by magic, a small bite was enough to satisfy their needs for the whole day, and it could help them recover their physical strength quickly after a big battle, but...

This thing really has no taste...
